Riyad Mahrez had been “grumpy” with Pep Guardiola due to his lack of game time before he scored a hat-trick for Manchester City against Sheffield United.
City progressed into the FA Cup final with a 3-0 win over the Championship side at Wembley on Saturday afternoon. Mahrez was the star of the show, becoming the first player to score three in the last four of the FA Cup since Manchester United ’s Alex Dawson in 1958.
He kept his cool from the penalty spot after Bernardo Silva was fouled by Daniel Jebbison to make it 1-0 after 43 minutes. The Algerian winger then scored a brilliant solo goal, dribbling into the heart of the box before finding the bottom corner.
